Best Thai in Penrith. Had the green curry with chicken and chilli basil beef (could have done with a bit more chilli). I've been a few times, never left without feeling satisfied. Yum yum!

Great value for money for $10 lunch. Had the schnitzel and I could not fault it, the best bit was the beer battered chips (absolutely amazing). I cannot wait to return and try all the lunch specials! I am intrigued to try the nacho wrap.

Love coming here for their lunch specials. Best bet is a Monday (when I'm not at work) when they have 1/2 parmi and chips for $5. Seriously amazing value and quite tasty! Perfect sized, I am normally stuffed after a full parmi. Come here occasionally for dinner and always leave satisfied. Have tried their pizzas, pasta and a chicken special. Value for money isn't quite as good at dinnertime.

Wow! I am shocked that there are no reviews yet. Went here for lunch last week. Decor was absolutely gorgeous! We sat by the window and watched people on the street walk past. I really wish I had a photo to post. Anyway, so we tried a serve of the steamed dumplings, I am a huge dumpling fan and they got my tick of approval, my only criticism is that there wasn't enough sesame/soy dipping sauce.

For mains we had sweet potato noodle with enoki mushrooms, another hit, really nice flavor and I adore potato noodles! They are so generous with their mushrooms, so make sure you like them! Next dish was a spicy chicken dish (I forget the name), which also had lots and lots of mushrooms but wasn't my favorite.

The waitress was so nice, she was very attentive and came to top up our water whenever it was empty and even gave us some free korean desserts to sample. I cannot wait to return, I really want to try the potato noodle soup!

What a complete and utter disappointment! Ventured a long way to try some delicious seafood and I wish I had read the reviews on here beforehand. So many other places we could have gone to.

So, we decided to go a little fancier and opted for the bistro option, it was a fair bit more for a plate and proper cutlery and you sat with the people who got takeaway too. The tables were filthy, people had left their prawn shells, rubbish and smears of sauce all over the table and there was no one there to clean it up.

We ordered a BBQ seafood platter and BBQ lobster between two and shared. Seafood did not taste fresh at all (I live 2 hours from the sea and get better seafood), scallops were gritty and everything lacked a distinct flavor. Ordered a glass of wine to go with it and the bar woman literally slammed it down. It is rare for me not to find positives in places but this was extremely unpleasant and I will definitely not return!

A bit apprehensive about dining here as we were the only Caucasians. The man at the front was quite rude and spoke very little English. Decor was nice. Waitress was gorgeous, so friendly and explained the menu to us. Tried something I can for the life of me remember what it's name is, it was a pastry ball filled with meat, nuts and rice. It was absolutely delicious, the meat so flavoursome. The waitress gave us some free hummus and the man at the front was not impressed. I would love to return if I'm ever in the area.

Overpriced, dodgy food. I had 911 wings and a quesadilla, both were revolting and I am known to eat almost anything. The girls were average. Will I be back? Nope.

Tacky and squishy as, but the food makes up for it. Mapo dofu, eggplant and twisted noodles ftw. Yum!

I've been here about 6 times, for work lunches and personal visit while shopping in Blacktown. Again, I would definitely recommend driving to the city.

Service was better here but food not as good. The one thing that baffles me is those tiny shrimp that they sneak into things, they are absolutely foul and ruin every dish they feature in. Today we got salt and pepper squid (I definitely recommend the squid over the calamari), it was tender and flavorsome, could have done with a few more fresh chillies, prawn dumpling, pork bun (so fresh and soft, a fav), roast pork rice noodle and chicken sticky rice (yummy).

From other occasions I remember really enjoying the mango pancakes and egg tarts. I am still haunted by my experience of eating chicken feet and also remember the fried taro dish not being very nice. As for the take away they offer at the front of the store, don't even bother. Tried it once and the rice was off.

A decent feed. Not as good as other noodle bars however. I do not like the fact that meat is precooked. Recommend for a quick lunch. Meal of choice, pad Thai or Singapore noodles.
